Mr.. Welsh will recommend:
1.-That thorough investigation be made by
government regarding the previous conduct OF
Indian men now confined at Fort Marion, and that
those who have been guilty OF no Offense, and es-
peeialiy those who have faithfully served the gov
ernment, should have some compensation for
their loss Of time and long Imprisonment.
2. That those who require special restriction
where they-can work.
3. That all the remaining Indians be taken
away from Fort Marion before the approach Of
hot weather. and that a reservation be assigned
them somewhere in the high, dry plains country
OF the West, where all needed opportunity and
forded them.
The Indians think the government has
broken faith with them, and that the prom
lses solemnly made to them by officers Of the
government have not been kept. However
TINS may be, 1t would seem that something
should be done with these people.

The n. r. SOtteF store, o5 "est
Street, Where the Ladies of Springfield
should Buy their Millinery.
As the change or seasons approaches it
becomes a question with the ladies, what
shall we wear and where with all shall We
be clothed?' and of all the perplexing parts
of lady's wardrobe no item gives more
concern and at the same time adds more to
the appearance than the hat or bonnet to
be worn. The care of this can largely be
avoided by trading with firm where can
always be found the largest stock of styles
and novelties from which TO select, and
where the greatest skill is displayed in the
trimming and makeup Of the millinery.
In Springfield the X. L. Souder store has
always held tine lead in this particular and
will continue to do SO in the future. They
always carry an immense stock and will in
the future carry a larger line than ever be
fore; in short they propose to hold the
front place among Springfield milliners.
Their new Spring goods are arriving daily,
and the ladies' will find it TO their interest
to call in and examine the stock.
